When her high maintenance boss is assaulted, manager Xena Morgan contacts the only person who can helpโ€”the sexy, arrogant, incredibly capable Stark Security agent Liam Foster. The former vigilante takes every case personally, and he’s determined to find answersโ€”particularly since he thought he’d cleared this threat already.

Xena had been thrilled when Liam completed his assignment, because he affected her in ways she didn’t want to contemplate, awakening yearnings that threatened her deepest secrets.

But now she needs him, and her body won’t let her forget it.

As their attraction heats to a feverish degree, the web of lies, danger, and passion they find themselves in tangles further. Liam will stop at nothing to protect his client, even if it means sacrificing everything he holds dear … and exposing the secrets that may destroy himโ€”and Xenaโ€”forever.

Charismatic. Dangerous. Sexy as hell.
Meet the elite team at Stark Security.

In the final First Wives novel byย New York Timesย bestselling author Catherine Bybee, falling in love could become the most dangerous dare of one womanโ€™s life.

Protector-for-hire Sasha Budanov is accustomed to life as a loner. Always on the move, sheโ€™s now reached a crossroad. Looking for answers about her shadowy youth, sheโ€™s returned to the strict boarding school in Germany where she was raised. Itโ€™s also where she was trained in the stealthy, militarized art of survival. But behind its gleaming gates, Richter is a fortress of secrets, including those buried in Sashaโ€™s mysterious past. To uncover them, sheโ€™s clinging to her first rule of defense: stay guarded.

If anyone can challenge Sashaโ€™s rules, itโ€™s devilishly sexy stranger AJ Hofmann. He wants answers, too. And he needs Sashaโ€™s help. The recent deaths of several of Richterโ€™s former studentsโ€”including AJโ€™s own sisterโ€”have aroused his suspicions. Heโ€™s arousing something more in Sasha. Never one to surrender to her emotions, she senses something tempting in AJ. She trusts him. Heโ€™s fearless. And he kisses like a demon. Sashaโ€™s found her match.

But treading Richterโ€™s dark hallsโ€”and following their heartsโ€”has its risks. As the decades-old secrets of the past are mined, Sasha and AJ are falling deeper in loveโ€ฆand into danger.

REVEAL by K. Bromberg

RELEASES Sep 24

AVAILABLE NOW

 •  Romance

Fromย New York Timesย bestselling author K. Bromberg comes the raw, sexy, and jaw-dropping finale to the Wicked Ways series.

I play to win, and I wonโ€™t let anythingโ€”or anyoneโ€”get in the way of what I want.

The first time I met Vaughn Sanders, I knew I wanted her. Confident, intelligent, and downright sexy. I thought I knew how to play her game. I was ready and willing for the challenge. Little did I know she was full of secrets and surprises.

But so am I.

Charming a woman into my bed has never been my problem. Itโ€™s the relationship part that is. They want it. I donโ€™t. But can you blame me? Broken marriages are how I make a living. Hell, no self-respecting man would let a woman own his thoughts, invade his dreams, and steal his heart. So how in the world has Vaughn done that to me?

Iโ€™ve fallen in love with her.ย There. I said it. But that acknowledgment comes with a heavy price.

Everything and everyone seem to be working against us, leaving us both to question whether what we have is worth the cost.

Iโ€™ll be damned if I go down without a fight.

Itโ€™s love. Trust me.

After a lifetime on the move, Ivy Snow is an expert in all things temporaryโ€”schools, friends, and way too many Mr. Wrongs. Now that she owns a successful taco truck in San Francisco and an apartment to call home, Ivyโ€™s reinvented life is on solid ground. And sheโ€™s guarded against anything that can rock it. Like the realities of a past sheโ€™s worked hard to cover up. And especially Kel Oโ€™Donnell. Too hot not to set off alarms, he screams temporary. If only his whispers werenโ€™t so delightfully naughty and irresistible.

Kel, an Idaho sheriff and ranch owner, is on vacay, but Ivyโ€™s a spicy reason to give his short-term plans a second thought. Best of all, sheโ€™s a tonic for his untrusting heart, burned once and still in repair. But when Ivyโ€™s past intrudes on a perfect romance, Kel fears that everything sheโ€™s told him has been a perfect lie. Now, if only Ivyโ€™s willing to share, Kel will fight for aย trueย love story.

Senior Detective Cat Day has one hard and fast rule about dating: no cops. They live hard and die youngโ€”a truth sheโ€™s faced every day since her fiancรฉโ€™s tragic death several years ago. But when rookie Jace Sutton shows up to work the same burglary investigation, she feels desire she hasnโ€™t felt in years.

Jace knows what he wants the minute Detective Day strolls onto his crime scene in heels and a pencil skirt tailored by God himself. He wants to thaw the legendary Ice Queen, and it only takes one hot, dirty night for Jace to realize he wants more. Much, much more.

But more is the last thing Cat wants from any copโ€”especially a playboy rookie like Jace. As the burglary investigation heats up and he repeatedly puts himself in danger, Cat must ask herself if Jace will be as reckless with her heart as he is with his life.

ENCHANTING SEBASTIAN by Kristen Proby

RELEASES Sep 24

AVAILABLE NOW

 •  Romance

The first in an all new stand-alone trilogy set in Kristen Proby’s Big Sky world, Enchanting Sebastian will take your breath away!

Turning thirty-five doesnโ€™t mean much to most men. For Sebastian Wakefield, itโ€™s the end of life as he knows it.
When your father is the King of England, thirty-five is the year that a marriage will be arranged, a suitable bride cementing a future you didnโ€™t choose. The obvious solution for escaping the archaic laws of the throne is for Sebastian to leave the country. And where better to go than America?

Nina Wolfe has spent her career avoiding scandal. As a Hollywood publicist and minor celebrity in her own right, she knows exactly what it takes to keep the media at bayโ€”and what will send them into a frenzy.

Prince Sebastian hiding out in Cunningham Falls, Montana is an unlikely story. Ending up in his bed, even more so. And keeping their arrangement out of the press might just be impossible. The ring on her finger is about to spark a firestorm that will change her life, and no professional spin will help Nina fit into the world of royalty.

Only love could write an enchanting new beginningโ€”if theyโ€™ll let themselves fall.

KISS ME TONIGHT by Emma Hart

RELEASES Sep 24

AVAILABLE NOW

 •  Romantic Comedy

What do a wrong number text, a burning building, and a quirky florist have in common?
A hunky firefighter with an extra-largeโ€ฆhosepipe.

In hindsight, I never should have opened that text message. The last thing I needed first thing on a Monday was a picture of some strangerโ€™s, um, eggplant, in my inbox.
I also should have replaced the batteries in my fire alarm, because my Friday night did not need to end with my apartment building going up in flames.
But itโ€™s fine. Itโ€™s fine. Everything is fine.
Iโ€™m only lying in a hospital bed with more split ends than Iโ€™ve ever had, almost all my Earthly possessions have turned to ash, and apparently, they donโ€™t serve wine to patients in this place.
But like I said, itโ€™s fine.
Until he walks in.
The guy who saved my life. My hero. Noah Jacobs.
And the universe is amusing itself at my expense, because the dirty photo I woke up to on Monday?
Itโ€™s his.

โ€œIโ€™m the fixer your board hired to clean up your mess.โ€

โ€œSo you show up here, break into my house, and take a bath?โ€

Emily Stantonโ€™s perfect life just became a disaster. She has a trust fund brother looking for a handout, a father who is more board member than dad, and a mother who thinks she should give up on this whole billionaire CEO thing and meet a man with a pre-nup and a yacht.

Oh, and then thereโ€™s that โ€œmisunderstandingโ€ with law enforcement witnessed by Miamiโ€™s paparazzi. Now her billion-dollar deal is on the line, and thereโ€™s a naked man in her bathtub who claims heโ€™s going to make all her problems disappear.

Charmingโ€”and happy to bend the rules when necessaryโ€”Derek Price has made a living polishing the tarnished images of the rich and famous. Heโ€™s never lost, and he never takes clients to bed. Until the dazzling Emily. Derek promised her a win and offered up a lifetime supply of orgasms as part of the deal. But if he canโ€™t stop her enemies, heโ€™ll end up losing much more than he bargained for.

Author Notes: An enemies-to-allies-to-lovers workplace romcom with a meet-nude, four lady billionaire BFFs, a hero whose many talents include styling hair and picking pockets, the best dang drag queen brunch in Miami, and a shameless romance novelist cameo.
